Schulman Plays For All of It

A player in early position raised to 3,000, Fabrizio Gonzalez called on the button, and when it came to Nick Schulman in the small blind he raised to 13,000.

The initial raiser folded, but Gonzalez made the call. Heads up, they saw the 3♠8♥5♦ flop. Schulman placed a hefty wager of 21,000 and was called yet again.

The turn brought the 7♣ and Schulman checked. Gonzalez sized down to 13,000 and Schulman went all in for about 60,000 effective. Gonzalez made the call.

Fabrizio Gonzalez: 6♠7♠
Nick Schulman: 10♣10♠

Schulman was ahead with his over pair, but Gonzalez had a pair to go along with his open-ended straight draw. The river was in favor of the latter, as he caught the 9♥ on the river to make a straight.

Schulman frowned nonchalantly and paid his opponent the majority of his stack.
